Writing Between the Lines

This workshop is for anybody looking to practice writing — in any capacity and toward any conceivable (or inconceivable) end. Guided exercises, as well as work from writers throughout history, will serve as our foundation; however, the primary purpose is to provide a supportive space to explore the potential of our words and ourselves. Rather than pursuing writing for a polished product, we will be navigating the less linear — but equally rewarding — process.
